NHS failing
Well being diagnosed with Cirrhosis 22/09/2022, I had my first 6 monthly HCC scan 07/03/2023 I was strangely excited to see the hard work it had taken to lose 3 stone, completely abstain from alcohol, endoscopy exam clear & not a single symptom of my diagnosis! I was met with a STUDENT and the most uneducated

Fibroscan of 9
I went to the BLT roadshow and had a scan and my score was 9. I’ve been a heavy drinker for years, so I knew it would be high., and I haven’t drunk since the scan on Monday. The clinician was lovely, and recommended I go to my GP to get blood tests but also said I shouldn’t be too concerned. Everything

Update from a worried mom.
I didn't realise it has been two months when I first posted about my son. It has now been confirmed that he is now terminal .It really bought it home when his gp rang to say he had completed the D1500 form that has to be sent to the government I think he said. Anthony went into a nursing home last Thursday

New test reliable?
Hello everyone. I hope your Saturday is going well. I spoke with my GP this morning to receive blood test results. She said my liver tests are good, my ALT only 50. She explained they did a fairly new test too, called fibrosis 4, known as fib 4 and that assessed scarring of the liver. It was really low

PBC with Cirrhosis
I was diagnosed with PBC in 2016, I had 2 ARFI scans one in 2019 and one in 2020. Both of these showed F4 result. I did not get told that this was, in fact, Cirrhosis until September 2022 by a Consultant Heptatologist at a different hospital. As you can imagine this has left me feeling overwhelmed and

Gamma GT
I was previously a heavy binge drinker, i had liver function tests which were ok but slightly raised GGT. I stopped drinking completely a couple of months ago and had the blood test again, it has risen rather than going down. i am otherwise very fit, healthy BMI and a good diet. Does anyone know why

British liver trust Roadshows
hi just wondering what the roadshows are like and how can you get scanned. My reason for asking is I have high gamma gt over 400, raised SAP over 150, serum alt level over 170, AST over 100. I have 57 week wait to see someone at my local hospital and my GP thinks I need a fibroscan. Ultrasound scan showed

High albumin?
What could cause slightly high albumin in blood? Just had some blood tests done and this was the only thing out of range. When I Google it, I only find dehydration as a possible cause. I drink a ton of water so this seems very unlikely to me. My past levels have always been within range. The doctor didn

Success with Adderall dependence and changing medications?
Anyone have any luck changing medications while dependent on Adderall? If so, how did you do it and what if any supplements did you use? Even if it was just quitting altogether, that can be helpful too. I am not addicted, but I am definitely dependent on Adderall. Like many others. The chance to stop
